Posted: 03 Dec 2013 03:12 AM PST I am running an experiment to map internet access speeds. Hopefully, this experiment will one day help people see the real speeds available in their area through crowd-sourcing.
I would appreciate if you could take a few minutes to submit a speed test result, location and your broadband ISP / plan name. Every few days I shall farm the sumitted results onto a map like this http://goo.gl/8IBd6d (Click on the markers to view the result details)
Submit your Speedtest.net result here: http://goo.gl/NlBzQm

Port forwarding on 3G Networks Posted: 03 Dec 2013 03:08 AM PST Hello Members, Just want to know if Port Forwarding is possible on 3G Data Cards. My main purpose is to use 3G Network ( BSNL/Reliance + 3G Data Card) with DVR Configuration to make it online. Advises are welcome. Thanks!! |
Posted: 03 Dec 2013 03:04 AM PST Guys, I'm from chandigarh and on 1350UL plan. (4mbps till 20gb 512after)
though i only get 2mbps.
And its been 2 weeks since the problem is happening. I'm using Netgear n300. Net keeps randomly disconnecting. And i have to reset modem/router then it works and again down.. repeat
Dunno if its BSNL or the Router. What should I do? Laptop ain't the problem, as disconnection occur on my ps3/tablet as well.
Its been really annoying. Help a brother out? |

Posted: 03 Dec 2013 02:42 AM PST Found this website via Facebook: Lazyninja.in Their collection is basically comprised of designs printed on a solid color t-shirt.

Tikona Broadband User Experiences Posted: 03 Dec 2013 02:16 AM PST Thought I would start another thread for people who have actually used this service to describe their experience. They have started advertising quite heavily in Bombay and their plans seem pretty decent. Their 600kbps UL plan would be excellent for me. I really like the way they have bill limits for their limited plans as well. That shows they understand consumer concerns about enormous bills and have designed their plans to allay them. So how good is their service? Any down time? How quickly do they respond to complaints? Really any information from people who have used Tikona would be appreciated. |

Frequent Disconnection / ADSL blinking Issue on MTNL Broadband Posted: 03 Dec 2013 01:44 AM PST Hi, I am a user of 849NU plan of MTNL Triband service since August based out of Navi Mumbai. All of August, i was very happy to have a lovely connection and good speeds, with a pretty good tariff. But now since the past 15 days I am suffering from very intermittent net connection. Although I am connected to the internet, sometimes the webpages take ages to open, and never open, while at other times it opens instantly. Also downloading has the same pattern, sometimes I get very good speeds of upto 200 Kbps, while other times there is no download. Although all download sites show good Triband Speed, but it is the intermittent connection that is the problem. This problem has crept up in the last 15 odd days, and I have tried everything but no change has been noticed. Has anyone else faced a similar problem, and if yes, whats the work around. The people at MTNL classify this as a slow connection problem, but that is exactly not the issue, as I do get good speeds intermittently. Somebody please help me. |
The general cricket discussion thread Posted: 03 Dec 2013 01:42 AM PST Why this thread? So often, we have some random thought or point to make/discuss , and I personally sometimes skip it as I feel it is not worthy of a new thread & feel its unfair to hijack an existing thread... Would recommend creating new thread for any big news & as usual we have threads for specific series/tournaments.. This is for something general random posts related to cricket...Kind of the Cricket Offtopic thread... Will start with one post ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Misbah & Taibu seem to competing with each other for the prize of who can bat more defensively.... ---------- After beating NZ in the 3rd ODI with a draing chase... Now Zimbabwe are on verge on possibly upsetting them in the Only Test... 116 needed in 34 Overs (Incl mandatory Overs) with the new ball just taken |
TataSky 7.1 Dolby Digital Plus, how to get Posted: 03 Dec 2013 01:35 AM PST For those who want to enjoy 7.1 Dolby Digital Plus or Dolby Digital 5.1 sound with tata sky +hd, plz do the following Buy an AVR/DAC with Dolby Digital + decoder and a set of 7.1 speakers connect them to Tatasky +hd Box with HDMI cable only (use Coaxial and optical for upto 5.1ch) go to organizer-> User Settings->audio settings set Hdmi to Dolby Digital(if Avr is connected through HDMI) or Spdif to Dolby Digital(If AVR is connected with coaxial or optical). by this your 7.1 system(HDMI connection) has been setup but u will still get 5.1 sound because, not all contents are in 7.1 sound, so choose a movie which as per internet information says that has DD+ 7.1 sound like RAOne. 2nd and most imp thing the box supports 7.1 but the firmware in +hd box is still old and supports only Dolby Digital. to get Dolby Digital plus(7.1) the STB firmware has to be upgraded. I have already mailed tata to do that and I request all of u to plz ask tata sky to upgrade the firmware of STB to support Dolby Digital Plus along with Dolby Digital. Once they upgrade it, you will see the option of DD+ in Audio Settings along with DD and PCM. set it to DD+ to get 7.1 sound when a 7.1 content is shown. |

WTF ARE THESE MOBILE OPERATORS ONTO? Posted: 03 Dec 2013 01:22 AM PST Yeah i still remember the good old days when TATA DOCOMO was the only good 2G network which was giving 4 GB for 95 rs. And that too without a single sec. of "disconnection".
Now onto the topic.. For few days as most of the people might be aware of the STUPID games played by mobile co. who revised their 2G Data plans (Vodafone/Idea 2G - 155Rs./GB) It is just pathetic marketing strategy to force their 2g subscribers to 3g .. YUCK !!
And now TATA DOCOMO is on the sameway.. Today i saw their website for Gujarat and what did i see ??
79 rs - 750MB - 21 Days 95 rs.- 750MB - 21 Days 126rs - 1 GB - 30Days 149 rs - 2gb - 30days And internet plus plan 104 rs - 1GB Data + 100mins. of Saavn music 129 rs - 1 GB 3g ( 1st good option available) 251 rs - 205 core TT and 1 GB 3g ( 2nd good option available) i mean who the f* will do normal 126 rs recharge if they can get 1 gb data + 1000 mins. of saavn music ?? and can get 1GB 3g for 129 ?? And that too with like every hr. of mobile disconnection issue Really Pissed off by these mobile operators What are your views friends??

Posted: 03 Dec 2013 01:20 AM PST I have a PPF account, which I opened through ICICI bank .. Every month they automatically deposit some amount to my PPF account ..
So in one year all those installments total is less than 1 lakh (PPF allows maximum deposit of 1 lakh per year) .. Now if I want to add more funds to my PPF account than can I do it? Cos on wiki it says
So those automatic installments makes it 12 installments in a year .. and if I make any extra "whole sum" deposit than will it increase the maximum allowed installments in a year?
Or it says tht one can deposit as much as amount as "whole sum" in addition to those 12 installments? |

MTNL ADSL Tp-Link 10 hour MTNL/ADSL session but no internet sometimes Posted: 03 Dec 2013 12:41 AM PST MTNL 1000 Plan TP Link Router Model No. TD-W8968 Firmware Version: 0.6.0 0.4 v0005.0 Build 130217 Rel.62075n Hardware Version: TD-W8968 v1 00000000
I have been facing this internet disconnection issue for past 8 months.
Solution 1. Changed the router straight way since I thought my D-Link + ADSL modem from MTNL had got spoilt. Got new router TP Link
Nothing happened, still bad internet.
Solution 2. Called MTNL guys, they bundled the 2 core wire from end to end to - 4 core, they merged the 4 wires each and joint them end to end. This was stupid move as this was even worst, as this would not let the ADSL handshake complete and would take ages to even STABLE ADSL Light.
Solution 3, After calling 100 time to mtnl and the visit and calling DMG and GM, the LAZY man sitting in the exchange who is the senior most only told me to change the cable from my house to the out side of my home to the next point of connection in the BOX. Told me he would not do anything untill I change the wire.
I got the wire changed with CAT 6, not even CAT 5, even better.
Nothing changed, still I have bad sessions. and constant disconnections. TP Link PPP LOGS show sessions disconnections The MTNL http://register.mtnl.net.in Site also showed bad sessions. So I was sure that I still had a bad line issue and nothing else.
Solutions 4. Finally I got very angry and I told the idiots to come to my house and then from my house to the next point check it
They checked and ... then they took the wire off the small switch where they clip it inside, re cut there the new CAT 6 and the wire which came and joined them together and re pressed them into the clip >> (This did improve little)
Solution 5 Then I used the internet for a few days and called them again that there is still issue of sessions disconnections. Then finally I made them go to the next point of connection, which was just 1 floor below my house, There was a plastic CAP button in which the 2 wires were joined and they cut off the button and joined the wires directly with TAPE, and DAMMMMM the connection issue was all gone.
Everything was great after that the ADSL and TP Link sessions are perfect 10 hours.
Solution 6 In the middle I also tried to change the ADSL type of connection in modem G,DMT >>> Annex A >> it gave a good result also, but not perfect. ADSL 2 >> also gives better solution better connection if your line is a little bad. your connection improves ADSL 2 Plus >> only if you have the best line and wiring
PROBLEM: So now what is left ??????????? NOWWWW
I still have no internet sometimes. The sessions does not disconnect but there is no internet sometimes, it goes and comes back. (skype/emails/web/google drive all disconnects and comes back/ google drive does not come back on its own, need to restart ) The ADSL light is always on even if there is no internet, so the session is perfect The MTNL has 10 hour perfect sessions
DNS changes tried all dns 8.8.4.4 8.8.8.8 59.185.3.12 But nothing stable all have same result now using auto detect dns
59.185.3.10 59.185.3.11

Volume levels on Tata Sky channels, both SD and HD Posted: 03 Dec 2013 12:37 AM PST Hi,
I have been facing this problem of very low volume levels for some time now. My set top box volume level is at 100% and my Sony LED TV needs to be set to 30-35 lines to be able to hear the audio properly. But still the quality is not good. Sound is muffled. Some of the dialogs are not properly audible. My HD+ STB is connected to my TV via HDMI cable.
Few observations: 1. Any non-HDMI devices such as DVD player, internet etc. works on my TV within volume range of 10-15. 2. Any HDMI device such as my camcorder, etc. works within same volume range of 10-15. It is just the Tata Sky HD+ STB which refuses to give good quality sound. I even tried using component output but same issue.
Suspecting that either the STB is not working fine or perhaps the signal itself doesn't have strong audio component, I have been chasing the Tata Sky support on this for last couple of days. But those guys keep giving nonsensical answers and close the complaint. Yesterday the technician told me that the HDMI ports on my Sony TV had a problem and I should contact Sony service center for the same. When I challenged him with the demo in point 2 above, he finally said he would check with technical support and get back to me. But to my surprise he went back and closed the complaint!
I checked with many other folks who are reporting the same thing i.e. the TV volume control is set almost half way through (50%) and STB sound level is set to 100% then only one can get something to hear, but still the quality is not good (suppressed, muffled, lower frequencies cut off).
Is this something that is affecting everyone? I wonder why Tata Sky is not responding to the complaints...
Hope to hear from you guys.
TIA, WinCPP |
Tata Sky DTH now replacing MPEG2 STBs with MPEG4 STBs for free! Posted: 03 Dec 2013 12:36 AM PST We are replacing close to 5-6 million MPEG-2 SD STBs at no cost to consumers over the next year. All of this is coming in from internal accruals.
But you need to wait for one more year to see many new channels
We have been adding channels in a phased manner; the process will now be accelerated with the MPEG-4 STB. By June-July next year we should be able to revise our channel offerings to consumers,

Posted: 02 Dec 2013 11:47 PM PST Hello everyone, first time poster here.
I am located in thane west and have been using 5net for about 3 months now. The main reason i switched over to 5net from my tata indicom adsl was the torrent speeds. I always used to get 900kB/s fro popular torrents and even 7-8 MB/s for more popular torrents. Later i discovered that it is due to BtCache/ CacheBT.. BtCache/CacheBT no longer shows up in the peer list for the currently downloading torrents (as many of you might know.. this is a network caching cluster of fivenet which provides such amazing speeds... simply put.. local torrent caching)
i can see however that youtube still works good for 720 even 1080p videos(i.e youtube is still cached)
has fivenet stopped torrent caching?? any one else facing a similar issue?? a call to my lco got me this response "Everything is fine"

Pathetic Corsair Service Center(RMA), New Delhi Posted: 02 Dec 2013 11:38 PM PST So went to Corsair laptop service centre just now. " Kaizen " Nehru Place to get my 4GB ram replaced.
I asked if i really need to come down there or is there any other option, the lady tells me " service center hei anna padega "
The place looked like freaking 10 year old toaster repair shop opened in khoka
Some Auntiji was sitting I asked if they can check the Ram and tell me if its ok or not. so I would just know now if i need to replace it or not :
Reply Can't do it.
I asked when will I get new Ram or you guys will give me the same thing back: Don't know corsair service aisehei hai...
They also had Dlink ...Aoc...and bunch of other service centres showing on their 10 year old board.
Honestly seems like crosair India support is totally cr*p!
Did not even get any SMS or anything of the complain. Its freaking 20 years kind of service. Just got printed receipt !
Now I need to go again after 2 days... grr. Travelling and wasting time like this is not cheap ! It almost took 3 hours to go and come back !
Is any thing else I can do so I get this thing done properly I don't want to end with the same Ram again specially if these people have no clew what will happen ! I should have gotten the dam thing replaced from FK when i had gotten couple of BSOD errors in the month i purchased it !
How can I get this delivery done via courier ? |
